"Should the likes of Noam Chomsky, Howard Zinn, Michael Parenti, Michael Moore, Ward Churchill, Dennis[?] Raimondo, et al. act out their sedition in a just-nuked America, expect their bodies to be found shot full of holes."
Hmmn, I think now would be an appropriate time to ask right-wingers where they stand in relation to these violent thoughts.
What's enormously amusing is that the chief propagator of the "Dennis Raimondo" meme is none other than Nico Ordway, er, Comrade Sandalio, I mean, Suleyman Ahmad... Horowitz's pit bull, Stephen Schwartz.
(Google any of those aliases if you don't know what I'm talking about.)
I suppose we could start an equally silly counter campaign to call John Wayne by his original name, Marion Michael Morrison and Woodrow Wilson by his real first name, Thomas.
Immaturity is the crutch of the thoughtless.
I guess you're wondering why it's Dennis and not Justin Raimondo. Well, Justin was Dennis before he changed his name way back and David Horowitz seems to think it's enormously amusing to write Dennis, not Justin. Truth is Dennis/Justin is a far better pundit than David Horowitz.

How does he know? What gives him the right to climb into the judgment seat anyway?
